Let's Get Personal

I want a bikini wax. I am, however, terrified of getting one. Two reasons: the obvious pain involved, and the thought of exposing myself to a total stranger. But then I think it's strange for me to feel so shy about it, considering I've had 2 c-sections which involved WAY more exposure than a bikini wax would. A nurse shaved my area before surgery, for crying out loud ... and I had catheters inserted and removed. Oh yeah, I also had random medical staff roll me around and put pads the size of diapers on me when I was still under the effect of my spinal and couldn't move my legs. And I was passing huge blood clots after surgery, so they were changing my diaper pad every hour or so. I really was a physical mess for 24-48 hours after my c-section.

ANYway, like I was saying ... bikini wax. How bad could it be? I really need to get over my hesitation and just do it. It's on my list of things to accomplish in my thirties.

Wait until you come to Phoenix, go to Allure, it is like 101 and Southern, looks and feels like a medical office, the woman has done a MILLION and one, it is more than a bikini wax, it is Brazilian, and I think it is like $40 (WHICH IS A STEAL!)-my sister and I have been going there for YEARS!!!!!!!!! We had our "first" there! But, I wouldn't go anywhere else! :-)

I think you would do fine. I haven't done a brazilian yet, but the other was no problem. There is a gal at Gadabout that's really good, and my current eyebrow person is the ultimate perfectionist. If you're not ready for the Brazilian, you can build up to it!
